Ordered my White Face / Black strap in the hopes of being able to purchase additional straps and swapping them out as the mood (or shoe)fit. After about an hour of searching (Googs, Azon, ConV themselves) I cannot find the straps by themselves available for purchase. Very disappointed and looking to cancel my order, as this nullifies the whole reason I wanted it. Hopefully CS can help me! Anyone else tried looking for straps?

I'm surprised this wasn't mentioned earlier, but The Mother Ship has these for $45 and up (those that are in stock).

I'd love to hear about the ability to read the face from someone who has seen the watch in person. I got burned by a Fossil watch that created a lot of hype because it was advertised in Maxim more than a year before its release. When the watch finally came out, it turned out Fossil used "enhanced" images in their advertising and you couldn't actually read the time while wearing the watch. Despite my earlier joke, that really is an important feature of a watch for me!

Went in for one because I didn't have a watch that wasn't either metallic or rubber strap. Hoping I get black face but figure either should be okay with that olive color band. Definitely agree this will be more of a form over function.

The 75% discount to MSRP ($65??) seems a little silly. Just goes to show how meaningless MSRP really is. I was going to say that at $15 these seem like overpriced junk; if you're looking to spend $65 on this watch, I have a whopper of a deal for you --- ten dollar bills that I would be happy to sell you for $20, which is a 50% discount to their $40 MSRP! What a deal!!(???)!!!

just wanted to mention that black dial on black face would most likely not be as big of a problem as you'd imagine.

i own plenty of watches with that combination. the usual way you'd be able to tell time is simply to tilt your wrist so the watch isn't facing directly at you. per my experience, the sheen off the dial would be different from the faceplate and it's very easy to tell the time by the light reflected. usually, the faceplate is pretty much matte, so it's even easier.

Arrived today in the mail.... The ladies one was well received by the Mrs. and the face isn't difficult to read (white face/black band)... The mens (black face/black band) was DOA :'( .... possibly a dead battery, gonna see if can be replaced and fixed.

This is not cool...I thought it would be cool ...black on black..I just thought it was hard to see in photo...no guys..you get it and there is no cool reflection or cool secret way to make it visible. I got 2 for my 2 grandsons. and now they are going to think I am not cool at all and I went to a Van Halen concert a couple of years ago.

Black on Black, white on white. How do you 'spec to see tonight! Or in daylight for that matter, unless you get the right angle to the light to throw a shadow. Can't believe Woot allowed this through. To the moon with you. Woot-wiser, I have slowed way down...
